    No chance he’s written this himself.

    These type of "how to get rich" books and even seminars are mindblowingly popular these days. Hearn with his fanbase will probably flog quite a few of them.

    In all seriousness a proper autobiography with an insight into the boxing world would be entertaining. I'm sure Hearn has loads of insane stories from all the fights he has made. But this book seems like it's just another means for Hearn to feed his ego.

    It will make a decent Secret Santa present when it finds itself on the £4.99 buy-one-get-one free clearance shelf at Waterstones near Christmas.

    To be successful ....

    Lie
    Cheat
    Pause
    Ignore what little conscience you may have
    Lie again

    Sounds cynical but seems to work for most businessmen.

    First I thought it was an autobiography and I thought it might be decent.

    I've always considered the the idea of self help/ success motivational books as ego stroking cringeworthy bollocks.

    Extremely cynical. Most successful business people are some of the most hard working humans in the planet, Just the twats get all the press.

    Hearn surely could reel off a few stories in a biography
    However, i think i was mistaken and this appears to be some motivation type deal in print

    But whether or not he has done a hard days graft isn't going to stop the fact he would have an interesting insight to the boxing world when it goes in to a book

    Oh for the days when you had Calzaghe v Manfredo as the headline, with chief support being Enzo v Bobby Gunn. Those were the competitive fights that I’m sure got us all into boxing in the first place.

    No 1/100 favourites on the undercard either. We have 13-0 Kell Brook against underrated Polish sensation Karl David, who has won four of his previous nine fights and here to win. 10-0 Barrie Jones faces Daniel Thorpe. He may go on to have more than a hundred losses, but at the time in fairness he did have less than sixty. Future world champions Amir Khan and Nathan Cleverly continue their ascent with absolutely in no way shape or form 1/100 type fights against Stefy Bull and Nick Okoth, and Gavin Rees, a 25-0 sensation, takes on 9-47 Billy Smith in what really appears to be a coin toss.

    I overheard Eh Day having a chat with the publisher and he made it clear that it will retail at a pay per page
